Answer:

They encircle the planet 3.76\times 10^{11} times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We have 2.5 mole of dust particles and the Avogadro's number is 6.022\times 10^{23}

Thus, the number of dust particles is:

2.5\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=15.055\times 10^{23}

Diameter of a dust particles is 10μm and the circumference of earth is 40,076 km.

Convert the measurement in meters.

Diameter: 10\mu m\times \frac{10^{-6}m}{\mu m} =10^{-5}m

If we line up the particles the distance they could cover is:

15.055\times 10^{23}\times 10^{-5}=15.055\times 10^{18}=1.5055\times 10^{19}

Circumference in meters:

40,076km\times \frac{1000m}{1km}=40,076,000 m

Therefore,

\frac{1.5055\times 10^{19}}{40,076,000} = 3.76\times 10^{11}

Hence, they encircle the planet 3.76\times 10^{11} times.

Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or a counter example. a. The Trapezoid Rule is exact
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

statement is TRUE  

statement is FALSE  

statement is TRUE  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)  

By using the Trapezoidal Rule, the definite integral can be computed by applying linear interpolating formula on each sub interval, and then sum-up them, to get the value of the integral  

So, in computing a definite integral of a linear function, the approximated value occurred by using Trapezoidal Rule is same as the area of the region.  Thus, the value of the definite integral of a linear function is exact, by using the Trapezoidal Rule.  

Therefore, the statement is TRUE  

(b) Recollect that for each rule of both the midpoint and trapezoidal rules, the number of sub-internals, n increases by a factor of a. then the error decreases by a factor of a^2.  

So, for the midpoint rule, the number of sub-intervals, n is increased by a factor of 3, then the error is decreased by a factor of 32 = 9, not 8. Therefore, the statement is FALSE  

(c) Recollect that for each rule of both the midpoint and trapezoidal rules, the number of sub-internals, n increases by a factor of a. then the error decreases by a factor of a^2.  

So, for the trapezoidal rule, the number of sub-internals, n is increased by a factor of 4. then the error is decreased by a factor of 42 = 16  

Therefore, the statement is TRUE

Find next number of 32,1312,11131112,31133112
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The next number is 1321232112

Step-by-step explanation:

32 is read off as "one 3, one 2" = 1312

1312 is read off as "one 1, one 3, one 1, one 2" = 11131112

11131112 is read off as "three 1s, one 3, three 1s, one 2" = 31133112

31133112 is read off as "one 3, two 1s, two 3s, two 1s, one 2" = 1321232112
